Random numbers are generated via a VRF built on Curve25519’s Ristretto group and proven using a Schnorr-like signature as described in RFC 9381. The proof and output are returned to the rollup with a signed callback from the MagicBlock VRF signer PDA. Your program verifies the caller and then uses the randomness in gameplay logic. Helper utilities like random_u32, random_u8_with_range, and random_bool make it simple to convert the [u8; 32] output into usable values. Because the request and consume steps occur inside the ephemeral execution window, users get real-time results with verifiable fairness and without relying on external servers.

​
Flow

The flow starts with a “Request for randomness”.
  1. Your program will CPI into the MagicBlock VRF program and append a request to the queue.
  2. Once your randomness request is in the queue, an oracle will release the request and perform the randomness computation.
  3. Upon completion, it returns the result and proof to the MagicBlock VRF program. After verifying the proof, the VRF program will callback into your program into a predefined function that will “consume” the randomness.
MagicBlock’s VRF Program is open-source and audited.
